Watch This Guy Storm Off 'Robot Wars' After Getting Beaten By Kids

Watch This Guy Storm Off 'Robot Wars' After Getting Beaten By Kids

This is wonderful.

We all like to win, don't we? Don't give me all that 'it's the taking part that matters' bullshit. We all like to win, because if you're not going to win then what's the point in taking part?

If you're one of those people who can't find anyone willing to play Monopoly with you, as it comes with a cast-iron guarantee that you'll be throwing the board if you're not winning, I get you.

This guy, who appeared on Robot Wars on BBC2 last night, also feels your pain.

He and his team were up against a team which was mainly made up of young lads and, when there was no clear winner in the final battle, it came down to the judges' decision. Unanimously, the judges went with the lads.

And, when presenter Angela Scanlon announced which team had won, did the adults on the losing team accept it in good grace? Did they balls.

One of the men passes the remote controller to his teammates and storms off in a huff, without even saying a 'well done' to the kiddiewinks.

People on social media couldn't get their head's around what they were seeing:




The kids don't seem arsed, though, and are happy enough to celebrate their win.

And I can't mention televised sore losers without a nod to the King of Sore Losers: Peter from Come Dine With Me, whose overreaction to coming last on the cookery show is the stuff of legend.

He didn't just pout and storm off, he properly went in on his fellow cooks.

"You ruined my night completely just so you could have the money," he tells one woman.

"I hope now you will spend it on getting some lessons in grace and decorum, because you have all the grace of a reversing dump truck without any tyres on!"

And when one of the other contestants says she didn't 'get' why Peter was so pissed off, he said: "Well you wouldn't, would you? Let's be honest, there's nobody in there, love."

Then he told winner: "Take you money and get off my property."

I think that's a fair reaction to coming last, to be honest.
